your welcome

 

hey you seem to know what yuor doing im not sure if this is relevant but how do you make it look like your flying a sword or a weapn or anything do you change the hlmt tag of a sword to a banshee? im just guessing please help.

and mod for fun if you want the br to look like a rocket launcher etc the just change the hlmt of the rl to the br and go into the weap tag and change the mode of the fp model (fp=firstperson)

 

im actually not sure you should try going to the [hlmt] tag and changing the [mode] tag of the banshee to the energy sword.

 

yeh but that would mean the modder would see it you would need to give the carbine banshee properties not the other way round

 

when did the carbine get in this conversation...you mean you want to have the ppl not modding to see that your flying the sword

 

yeh but i just learned thats not possible unless the weapon has the meta ofset of, say a banshee but that just makes the xbox crash and people say the senitnel beam is the only weapon that other poeple can see the model for but that is not true only you can see it. but its is possible for you to look like your flying a sword. if anyone wants a tutorial on how to do that just ask.

 

wow ok hit it up with a tut

 

ok i did not make this tut i asked for one at halo mods so i am taking no credit! so here goes:

What you probably know is that everybody in a modded game without a mod chip can only see projectiles that shoot out of a Plasma Pistol or a Rocket Launcher.
What you probably didn't know is that there is one weapon, than when you change the skin of it, everybody can see the different skin, too. That weapon is the sentinel beam.

First thing you have to do it go to the <weap> tag, and open up the sentinel_agressor. Go to the Dependencies Swapper, and change the <hlmt> tag (objects\weapons\support_low\sentinel_gun\sentinel_gun) to whatever model you want to drive.

So yes, you can drive a mine, an uberchassis, a box, an elite, or a turret. Anything in the hlmt tag.

Next, open the <vehi> tag and open the vehicle that you want to swap to with. Choose banshee if you want it fly, choose ghost if you want it to have a boost, or choose warthog if you want more than one person in it at a time. Open up the Dependency Swapper and change the <weap> there (either banshee_gun, ghost_gun, or warthog horn) to the Sentinel Beam.

Finally, open up the <mode> tag and scroll down until you find a file path in there that begins with [objects/vehicles/*the vehicle you just edited*]. Open every file that belongs to that vehicle in the Dependency editor and Null Out whatever you see it there.

For the banshee or ghost, there are only four file paths that you have to open and then Null out, but for the warthog there is about ten.

Then do the same thing for the shad tag, the lens tag, and the cont tag.

What this does it make every part of the vehicle invisible except for the weapon. And of course, the weapon is a sentinel beam with a different skin that everybody in the game can see.

by the way a recent auto update has made the senintel beam like every other weapon so that other people cant see the hlmt changes but you can see it and it looks pretty funny ^^. one more tip its good if the hltm is bigger then the vehicle then the bipd looks like its actually in the object!

 

that's right!!...lol...i couldent give enough detail...srry..

 

hey chong what your gamertag?
and people look at my sig and donwload mt relic its awesome!

 

my old tag is: chong50, New tag: TAxIAPOC4LYPS3I

 

Wow, unbelievable what you can do with an xbox and a computer.

thank you chong50 for posting these tags. it will make it easier for me to create maps. your cool

 

my relic is pretty cool cool skin link in my sig!
oh yeh sorry to point this out chong but if you try and change the scnr tag except for itmc tag i think. your map just crashes i tried to make it so that masterchiefs spawn instead of crates just crashed.
